  • Patent number: 11669519
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, computer program-product, and system for generating predicate-weighted histograms in a database management system. Further, the methods, computer program-products and systems in accordance with the present invention generate histograms that are biased towards the predicate literals of the queries that are submitted to the database management system. The resulting histograms will improve query performance by generating histograms with greater resolution near predicate literals that represent the queries submitted to the database management system.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20180203593
    Abstract: A computer-readable medium storing instructions which, when executed by at least one processor of a computer system, adapt the computer system to implement a method for displaying relative saturation of a computer disk system. The method includes visually displaying elements of the computer disk system in an infographic disk activity interface. The elements may include at least one of the group including at least one disk controller, at least one physical disk, at least one file, and at least one other files. The elements are visually linked using an arrangement of connectors defining respective data flow paths between the elements. Disk system activity along the data flow paths is visually indicated using static and/or dynamic infographic display elements.
